    I am not so fussed about water temp (Well I am, but I think the stock guage is good enough...) I do however have an oil temp guages and sensor, and I am not sure where to put it!!!

    I assumed he meant a guage with a digital display, like some of the SPA stuff

    The is amusing I should show this thread to my neighbour as he is the fella in question who told me to get a 'digital' one. He might get a headswell tho as multiple people are talking about him
